Now to be fair, the Eagles upheld their end of the bargain. They’re 4-2 going into game #7 and compelling enough to warrant a primetime slot. The Jag-wires, on the other hand? Not so much. Doug P has his boys sitting at 2-5 with wins over the Colts and Patriots. His seat is hotter than a trip to Mercury on Elon Musk’s SpaceX rocket. It would have been a nice ‘former coach’ type of angle for prime time in Philly, but on the flipside, if you like that second window, that 4:05 or 4:25 time slot, there are a lot of those coming up in rapid succession.
